Lizetta wanted to celebrate her brother's coming of age, not expecting him to wear them often. If he wore them just occasionally, she would be thrilled.

For a time, Remington wore those cufflinks to many significant events.

Despite being the cheapest pair he owned, their relationship later grew strained, and Lizetta never saw those cufflinks again.

Do you take them out to spite yourself?" en Stella scoffed, "Of course, I plan to return them to Remington. It's basic courtesy." Lizetta pocketed the cufflinks. "Perhaps I should return them for you?"

Was Lizetta actually planning to confront Remington with the cufflinks? That couldn't happen.

As Stella reached out, the two struggled fiercely. Stella, V exasperated, said, "This was left to me, so of course, I should personally return it to him! You... ah!"

In the midst of their tug-of-war, Stella suddenly screamed, stumbling back a few steps and falling to the ground.

The glove she had been wearing, specially designed to conceal hem missing fingers with padding, was torn off and landed beside her. Exposed and on the ground, her injured hand started to bleed.
